With this recent addition to TMG and with current businesses in the pipeline to join, TMG anticipate achieving £100m of monthly mortgage applications by the end of 2021.
Scott Thorpe, managing director and co-founder of The Money Group, said: “We have always admired the business ethos of the team over at create and I think we have both been on each others radar for a while but, until now, the stars never quite aligned for us to work together.
“We realised quite recently that our businesses objectives are very similar and so now seemed the most opportune time to take the logical step of finding a way to collaborate.”
Karl Yeoman, director and co-founder of Create Finance, added: “We are delighted to be joining up with TMG. They have a great model and strong management team who have a vision similar to ours.
“We can see that our businesses were on a similar growth trajectory and so it made sense for us to take steps to work more closely together.”
